Sergio Aguero disputes claims he hit a steward during game against Bournemouth

"This allegation is false."

The final few minutes of Bournemouth's game against Manchester City on Saturday afternoon were frantic. City won the game when Raheem Sterling made it 2-1 to the visiting team in the seventh minute of added time. Just a moment or two beforehand, Bournemouth were on the attack and had the chance to win it. A minute after scoring, Sterling had been sent-off by Mike Dean for celebrating with the travelling City fans. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/901482817057693696 However, the referee didn't have the spotlight for long. Following the breathless finish to the game, a strange story emerged. Sam Cunningham, a Mail Online journalist, reported that police had taken a statement from a steward at the game who claimed that Sergio Aguero had "hit" him during City's celebrations when fans came onto the pitch. https://twitter.com/samcunningham/status/901455304185008130 It was a serious accusation to make and it remains to be seen if the police or the Premier League will take any action against the City striker. Aguero addressed the matter on Twitter on Saturday evening, and said any suggestion that he "hit" a steward is "false." https://twitter.com/aguerosergiokun/status/901510700220264448 Footage emerged of the incident, and Aguero can be seen picking up a police officer's hat, and returning it to the officer. He then comes back and interacts with the City fan who was being restrained on the pitch.
